I bet they're not cheap though. Are you sure your problem isn't down to the window-frames sagging away from the body? It's often the cause of rain-leaks and wind noise rather than the rubbers. If they are sagging, they can normally be straightened up with a bit of brute force. Make sure the windows are wound down before you try it though... Cheers, Colin.
